Line and Wash and Soy Sauce

An ink and watercolor sketch of a bottle of soy sauce. As remarked upon previously, for Friday dinners we almost always have a tofu-cilantro stirfry over rice. But we were out of soy sauce and had to pick up a new bottle this morning. It made a fine subject for a sketch. I did this with my fude fountain pen and Schmincke pan watercolors. I tend to use waterbrushes for my sketches instead of actual paintbrushes but today I used the latter — it’s a good practice. One gets a lot more control with real paintbrushes but they are harder to work with in the field.
